I'm so annoyed by noises in my truck, my wife always refuses to answer me when I mute the radio and ask her "do you hear that?" .
I'm really glad GM got rid of the doors that went all the way to the roof line.
I don't know how many times I greased the weather stripping on that 08 Sierra to make the squeaks and rattles stop!

I was thinking about something along this line, the other night on my way home from work, and I'm looking at getting a couple of the "pen-head" LED lights, like what some of the guys have used to light up the step pockets in their back bumpers, tied in before the flasher relay of the turn signals. After reading some of the posts, I may even rig a separate switch to have them both on, and taking power from the high-beams (maybe).

My moms CRV did this a couple years ago as she was backing up in her driveway. The place that replaced it told her that they replace rear and side glass in several vehicles weekly that randomly exploded while driving. Guy said all makes and models he blamed it on the vehicle flexing and putting pressure on the glass. Doubt that’s what happened here but that was the first time I’d ever heard that one.

Just bought amp-research running board lights
I just bought amp-research running board lights to do the same thing. The wire you are looking for is located at the bcm. Gray 26 pin plug, pin position #1, gray wire, positive trigger. This wire will also fade out with the dome lamp

Nathan, I'm a LOT like you, every little rattle, crinkle, etc, bugs the hell out of me, not only when I'm driving, but even when I'm a passenger (even in someone else's vehicle).
On the "we'll look back at this and laugh" side, I was rolling with some of the solutions. Glad it all worked out though.

This is a steal!!
inTune i2 i2030 GM programmer, with 7 licenses!!
1 license would be used for your own supported GM vehicle.. and then you still have $900-worth of 6 additional GM licenses to use!! And I'm selling the programmer for only $200... So that's a total value of $1,100 !!! ---- You are saving 450 bucks because **I am selling the programmer + all additional licenses for only $800 USD, and I will also give you a full custom tune for 1 GM vehicle!!!** ---- And then you can use the other available licenses to charge your friend's to tune their supported GM vehicles with the preset canned tunes!! And you make your money back, and then some!!
So for just $800 USD, it's all yours!! PLUS 1 custom tune for 1 GM vehicle!!
You can email me directly at: diablo DOT help AT gmail DOT com --- with your GM truck year, model, engine, any mods done to it, etc. and I can send you a looong email with info about the programmer, the custom tuning, the process for what you'd need to do, etc.

When I was running a Range in my CC I Plasti-dipped the cover over the lights cause I didn’t like the ricer disco light show on the floor at night. Don’t remember how many coats I did (did one at a time) but I could still see the lights were on but no more show...

You were thinking of:
In 1964, "Red Asphalt"
In 1978, "Red Asphalt II"
In 1989, "Red Asphalt III"
In 1998, "Red Asphalt IV"
In 2006, "Red Asphalt V"
BTW, they are all on YouTube.
There were several other films out there, like "Blood on the Windshield," "Death on the Highway," and "Highways of Agony."

I run a Jet 170F. Zero loss of MPG and I keep track of every ounce of fuel and measure every mile and chart every result. It tosses no codes. Heat is an enemy of longevity. Oil and trans coolers are mounted in the radiator tanks so cooler is cooler for both oil and trans which = longer life. GM does what it does to satisfy the EPA and FED MPG targets and gives a hoot about your bottom line. I AM an engineer and in this field a bit hard to BS. There is no down side to a lower temp thermostat (within reason) but many to baking your motor like a clam. 170 or 180 F thermostat is just peachy.

I have the maxliners. Look exactly the same as the rough country ones. Complete full carpet coverage. They fit perfectly and so far no lifting on corners or anything (only had them 6 months) Sent from my SM-G903W using Tapatalk

Ok but please understand a dealer worker in their best interest and Always less than the Best you can get. FACT is you can get a free loaner truck and full repair. But the way you did it already you passed that up. I understand I sound like a ass hole but really I just hate the hustle of gm paid dealer service after fact. These truck are expensive and the customer deserves better and. Would have it based on federal law,warranty,and customer service laws. But please post how it goes and what they offer. Or pm me the vin and I can see it in real time. Best wishes. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Yet again a sad story hallowed by the customer handling it wrong. Please I beg you call the gm service rep first get a approved service ticket. Then and only then move forward. But anyways I know know you are enjoying you free Denali and the free money...Oh wait no... ok good luck... Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I installed a set of tow mirrors which have the rear facing clearance lamps. There's a pair of wires for these clearance lamps separate from the rest of the harness. The mirror control power and heat element are plug and play and work fine. I want to use the cargo lamp switch to power these clearance lamps, so that when I turn on my bed light these side light's come on as well. I identified the wire which controls the cargo light at the BCM (Dark Blue/White Strip). It's my understanding that this wire is the switched ground and that the BCM makes the connection to power when the switch is on completing the circuit. Iv'e reviewed several posts in different forum's talking about this. My take is that you tap into the blue/white wire with the ground wire from the led's and provide power to the positive wire via a add a fuse connection from the driver side fuse box. I did all this and it kinda works, It's just a little back words. When I turn on the cargo light my cargo light comes on as you would expect, but the led's on the mirrors stay off. When I turn the cargo light switch off my led's come on and my cargo light goes off. Truck is a 2003 Silverado 1500HD.
Iv'e also see that you can tie into power from the mid-bec as well,just not sure how to do this from the info I've been able to find. Can anyone help me figure this mod out.

If it was remote started, there's a good chance the auto-defrost was turned on. Check your remote start settings on the truck and see if the box next to "defrost on startup" or whatever it says is checked.

Engine light just came on and is P0178 saying fuel composition sensor fault. Anyone have experience with this issue. Haven't checked voltage on sensor yet but doubt I have bad or water in fuel. Also have P2269 code for low voltage on WAter in fuel circuit. Bad sensor ? Other issue? Any help would be appreciated.
